ThreeFour Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Ooooh Blakey You got negged man I often forget about backwards compatibility. Nintendo was pretty good for that but never got kudos really. I got all my sweet sweet consoles for retro nights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I'd rather have them than not though, same way I preferred Sony 'giving' games away last generation when they were playing catch up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisturbedSwan Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Interesting...tempted to keep my Origin access for another month then to give FIFA a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regemond Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I'm happy with the BC choices this month. Lego games are always harmless fun and I quite enjoyed the Force Unleashed series. The XBOne choices aren't for me though - I wasn't a fan of Giana Sisters and I've already played through the Lara Croft game. Good month if you ask me tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 XB1 - Speedrunners, Watch Dogs, Phantom Dust DLC pack X360 - Assassin's Creed 3, Dragon Age: Origins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regemond Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Watch Dogs is awesome as a free game. Ass Creed 3 was disappointing when it was free as part of PS+ but still had enough to keep me going to the sublime Black Flag. I've got DA:O on PS3 but never played past the first hour or two. Is it worth it? Or would it feel regressive now? Another month where I can't really level any complaints. Microsoft seem to be doing really well with their GWG choices recently.

DisturbedSwan Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Been a Microsoft E3 conference line-up leak from 4chan, isn't exactly known for its reliability so take with a heap of salt, but thought I'd share (also wasn't sure if this should go in the E3 2017, Scorpio or this thread, so put it here for now): Quote Here is a summary of Ntkrnl Information that he told over the span of the past days.

DisturbedSwan Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 True enough, mods can move the 4chan leak from the previous page over to E3 2017 if they can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Yeah I usually do use the tag 9 times out of 10 when playing through games. With E3 leaks from 4chan though, they almost always turn out to be bollocks and nothing more than speculation which is why I didn't feel the need, but I understand how some folks want to go into conferences completely blind and I'll be more trigger-happy with the tag button from now on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Solid line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Better than last month! K&L2 is a good game, LEGO Pirates is ok, and I've not played the XB1 games but Grow Home was alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
